I don't see what the fuss is about, I ordered it online & got it 3 days ago because of the postal strikes :)

When I saw Christian tweet on people queing up at midnight I thought it was a joke :) I've grown to quite like Vista, I don't see what the big rush is?

As my dear old dad - you used to run a shop at the seaside used to say "Nobody ever lost money betting on the gullibility of the general public."
